Man Meets World

Recommended by: MAT

Scott Woz has been travelling for more than three years and shows no sign of stopping either the journey or the blog.

"The sheer volume of this blog is amazing, and he never loses his enthusiasm," writes MAT. "If you're interested in life in New Zealand and Australia you'll love the mixture of everyday detail and stunning photography."

ThailandSteve

Recommended by: David A

As you might suspect, this is a blog about Thailand by a man named Steve.
"This isn't the usual superficial tourist stuff," writes David A. "A lot of the posts are about meditation and spiritual discovery, but it's written with humour and self-deprecation.

The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.

My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.
